Peterborough United Women have the chance to overtake leaders Boldmere St Michaels with at least a point in the West Midlands on Sunday (2pm).
March has gotten off to a flyer for Jake Poole’s team, who last weekend beat Worcester City 7-2 in front of a crowd of over 1,700 at the Weston Homes Stadium.
Lauren Wilshaw recorded four assists on International Women’s Day and will look to continue her numbers on Sunday, as will Keir Perkins, Niamh Connor and Kayleigh Hines, who each scored twice.
Jess Rousseau’s numbers show no signs of slowing, either. The forward notched a Goal of the Month contender with our second and has already been nominated for the club’s February award.
This will be the fourth time Sunday’s fixture was scheduled to go ahead, which means Meg Bailey’s side could have a huge say in our push for promotion, being two of our remaining six league games, with a lot riding on it for the hosts themselves at the other end of the table.
TEAM NEWS
Niamh Connor picked up a knock on the weekend, but should be fit to start but midfielder Courtney Clarke remains on the sidelines with an ankle injury.
MANAGER QUOTES
"We did a lot of the preparation for the game before the game was unfortunately postponed, but we have topped that up this week and they are a much better side now than when we were due to play them. All the teams at the bottom of the table are scrapping for points and it will be a tough game for us as we try and break them down ," Jake Poole said.
